October 1898 - Gift of Land to the Vicarage

GIFT OF LAND TO THE VICARAGE

The Parishioners may like to know, and it is certainly worthy of being put on record for the benefit of posterity, that the authorities of Christ Church Oxford (the Patrons of the Living) have purchased from Messrs. Lords Trustees a piece of land, which, they have very liberally presented to the living of Badsey. The quantity of the purchased land is two roods, thirty perches, situated with frontage to the main road, at the west end of the field known as the Stockey, and adjoining the fence in front of the Vicarage.
